How lovely is your dwelling place
 A		  B
Oh Lord Almighty
 E					B
My soul longs and even faints for You
  E
For here my heart is satisfied
   A			B
Within your presence.
     E				         B
I sing beneath the shadow of your wings.
CHORUS
 	   A                                 B
Better is one day in your courts, Better is one day in your house
	   A                               B
Better is one day in your courts, Than thousands elsewhere.
 	   A                                 B
Better is one day in your courts, Better is one day in your house
	   A                               B                 E
Better is one day in your courts, Than thousands elsewhere.     (Repeat)

E                                 A                 B
One thing I ask and I would seek,   To see your beauty.
E                                    B                      
To find you in the place your glory dwells. (Repeat then chorus X2)

Your spirit's water to my soul
  C#m			   B  A                         (B,C#)
I've tasted and I've seen         Come once again to me

I will draw near to you
